Welcome the Patch 6.12, the ARAM patch. While there are a decent amount of non-Howling-Abyss changes here, we figured we'd take this opportunity to speak directly to the poro-lovers of Murder Bridge.
We don’t often make straight adjustments to ARAM as a mode, so let’s slap some context on that. While we don’t plan to ever fully balance a random mode given the obscure (and sometimes soul-crushing) compositions it can churn out, we’re confident we can make some pretty big wins by easing some of the more obvious outliers. That means addressing the dominance of healers and poke teams, as well as giving melee champions (and gold-starved classes of all shapes and sizes) a better shot at equal footing. You can read more on the changes below, but all-random players: Snowdown’s come early.
For those that prefer their maps a little less frozen, we’ve still got changes you can sink your teeth into. Much of this patch is focused on light tweaks (especially on the items and mastery side) to nudge certain classes and builds upwards or downwards in the hopes of letting those stuck in the middle shine through. Slap on some extra scalings here and there (and a whole 6 seconds off Corki’s rank 1 dash) and you’ll see that, ARAM or otherwise, this patch is all about the little guys.
And that’s all for us! Until next time - may all your Marks lead to Dashes, and your Dashes lead to sweet, sweet victory.
Yup, I'm a bit confused about corki is it a buff or a nerf?

Buff by the sounds.
BACK FOR SECONDS On first turret kill, all team members receive an additional Poro-Snax
--- Best patch ever!

Indeed, Corki got buffed by quite a margin.
Come on why fizz :/
And it's a pretty huge nerf aswell with 45% cdr from 4.4 to 5.5 on E..
"BACK FOR SECONDS On first turret kill, all team members receive an additional Poro-Snax" that's pretty cool though.
Well, he was like in 50% of my games. It's good that Fizz got nerfed but still waiting for Malzahar/Brand nerfs.
Maybe some re-work for old champs as Warwick, Kayle or for ex. Urgot.
Finally, Thresh's souls count twice as much on ARAM.

Are you a Thresh-main player?

Eh, not that great of a patch for me. It's a very ARAM centered kind of thing. Only thing I really play League for is to climb. ARAM doesn't appeal to me.

Playing ARAM's pretty nice to acquire IP quickly, though.
